pickThis book was on my #tbr list for years, and it did not disappoint! Eminently literary, this novel had a really dark humor to it. It is about childhood, adulthood, parenthood, and all the ways they go wrong. Moving, touching, and thought-provoking, if this book piques your interest, I definitely recommend you give it a try.

Nat_Reads I loved this one! I get excited when others review it--not enough people have read it that I know IRL to chat about it! 6y
Bloomingjen thanks for the good review. i read another by him and loved it but even though I have picked this up a few times, I havent gotten past the first couple of chalters 6y
ReadosaurusText @Nat_Reads I liked that it was at times challenging but always rewarding. It felt like an all-boys, non-magical Harry Potter in a way. I liked how gritty it was. 6y

ReadosaurusText @Bloomingjen I can totally see how this book might not be for everyone. I'm glad to hear you liked his other book--I am not familiar with it and will have to check it out! 6y
Bloomingjen it was so funny. I will get this one read eventually. I still need to read the Mark and the Void or whatever it is called.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
